Buy Premium Quality Live Resin Concentrates and Extracts.

Of the many different types of cannabis concentrates or extractions, live resin is relatively new to the cannabis world. It has become popular among consumers and producers alike—it preserves the flavors and aromas of the living plant better than other cannabis extractions and is cheaper and easier to make.

Live resins usually have a more complex terpene profile and can deliver a more complex experience.

What is live resin?

Cannabis concentrates are often named or described by their textures or consistencies: some are hard and brittle, like shatter; some waxy; some thick and gooey, like batter; and some like sauce. Live resin is a more malleable concentrate, sitting somewhere between a wax and a sauce—not quite like taffy yet not too wet.

It is typically dark yellow in color but can vary from light yellow to white. Like all cannabis concentrates, it is extremely sticky, so you’ll need a dab tool to handle it.

Live resins tend to be potent with a lot of THC, and consumers love it because of its intense flavors and aromas which carry over from the original plant.
How to make live resin

Live resin distinguishes itself from other types of cannabis concentrates because it is created with fresh frozen cannabis—plants that are frozen immediately after being cut down at harvest. These plants are kept frozen throughout the extraction process and skip the drying, curing, and trimming phases of harvesting.

The drying and curing processes that cannabis plants usually go through can have a devastating impact on terpenes, the plant’s flavor and aroma compounds. Terpenes are present in trichomes, which cover buds and surrounding foliage.

During drying and curing, moisture and chlorophyll leave the plant. This can expose trichomes to heat, oxygen, and light, all of which can degrade terpenes. Trichomes also tend to break off a plant as it is handled and moved around during harvesting.

By freezing the plant immediately after harvest, trichomes are preserved and the cannabis plant retains its valuable terpene profile, original flavor, and fragrance throughout the extraction process and into the final product. buy live resin

After harvesting, frozen plants are put through a solvent extraction process, using butane, propane, or another solvent.
Cured resin vs. live resin

The difference between these two concentrates is mainly in starting material: Cured resin is made from dried plant material, whereas live resin is made from frozen plant material that is kept frozen throughout the extraction process.

Cured resin is also more of a general term for an extraction from dried cannabis that will be turned into shatter, wax, batter, or various other types of concentrates.

Benefits of live resin

Dabbers love live resin because it is more flavorful and “terpy” than other concentrates. In preserving trichomes and terpenes, it retains the flavor profile of the original plant. Preserving trichomes also keeps cannabinoids intact, and live resin is also known to be potent.

Growers like producing plants for live resin as well. Fresh freezing plants at harvest means growers don’t have to go through the long, arduous processes of drying, curing, and trimming plants—whole plants can be chopped down, frozen, and sent directly to the extractor. Producing plants for live resin saves growers enormous amounts of time, labor, and money.

How to Consume Live Resin

Live resin can be consumed in a few different ways.

Dabbing

Dabbing is the most popular way to consume live resin. To do so, you’ll need a dab rig, torch, and nail, or an e-nail or e-rig. You’ll also need a dab tool to handle the concentrate and place it in the nail, most likely something with a scoop on it, given live resin’s goopy consistency.

Vaping with a dab pen

You can also put live resin in a dab pen, a device similar to a vape pen, except for concentrates.

Be sure to use a dabber tool to get the live resin into the oven or bowl of the dab pen. Then just adjust the temperature, press the button, and inhale. buy live resin

Topping off

You can also put some live resin on top of a bowl, joint, or blunt for an added kick.

How to store live resin

Keep live resin cool and in an air-tight container, preferably in a fridge if you can. This will preserve its terpenes and keep it tasting and smelling great for a while.

Leaving it out in the open with the lid off will expose it to air, light, and heat, which will degrade the terpenes and make it less flavorful. This will also cause it to dry out and harden, making it difficult to handle.
